Thumbprint cookies


Ingredients:
2 cups all purpose flour, sifted
1/2 cup cornstarch
3/4 tsp salt
1 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
3/4 cup powdered sugar
2 tsp vanilla
chocolate buttons

Procedure:
Preheat oven at 350 degrees F.  Line cookie tray with baking paper.

Cream butter and vanilla until smooth.  Add in the powdered sugar and salt and continue beating until soft and creamy.  Add the cornstarch and flour and beat until mixture is soft and fluffy.  Chill the mixture for about an hour.  When the mixture is firm enough, form into balls, about 1 to 1-1/2 inch size.  Line them on cookie sheet 1 inches apart.  Bake for about 10 minutes.  After 10 minutes, remove them from the oven and press down 1 chocolate button on each cookie and continue to bake for another 2 minutes.  Remove from oven and transfer on a wire rack to completely cool.
